Infantry Support Center
Enables construction of the Motor Pool and Tank Depot. Unlocks the Captain Retinue in the Headquarters. Provides upgrades for Infantry.
The Infantry Support Center (also known as ISC) is a USF structure. In skirmsh matches, it is specifically an add-on / 'upgrade' from the USF
As one of 3 exclusive 'tech paths' USF players can take in each skirmish match, the ISC is focused on infantry upgrades and empowerment. Some of these upgrades are quite expensive but provide incredible exclusive bonuses to all infantry. More info on these available upgrades can be seen below in the upgrades section.
As with the other support center structures, once one is constructed the decision is final and cannot be reversed/changed for the rest of the match.
Upon completion, the ISC will also spawn a single free

Change Log
1.7.0 Onyx Shark July 16 2024
Munitions Surplus
The current implementation of Munition Surplus requires the player to purchase it early to gain the most benefit from the munition discounts. This made it extremely powerful in the early game, but also made the upgrade scale poorly once all infantry units were upgraded until a unit was lost.
We are changing Munition Surplus to now affect abilities and buildable objects like mines. This reduces the immediate power of the upgrade, but allows for a long-term benefit throughout the course of the game.
Cost increased from 100 manpower and 15 fuel to 100 manpower and 25 fuel
No longer decreases the cost of weapon upgrades
Now reduces the cost of infantry abilities, demolition charges and mines by 10 munitions.

Infantry Support Center
Survival Training fuel cost reduced from 70 fuel to 60 fuel
1.6 'Coral Viper' April 2 2024
We are moving the Captain into a more supportive role and adjusting the costs of two other upgrades. These changes are intended to move Infantry Support Center from being an all-rounder tech decision to being more specific at supporting heavy investment into infantry.
Captain Retinue
We are removing one of the retinue members of the Captain squad to further emphasize the Captain’s role as a support unit, rather than as a combat unit. In return, the squad now has veterancy that better reflects the squad’s support role that relies on its abilities to be effective.
Squad size reduced from 4 to 3
Squad cost set to 150 manpower when rebuilt
Mark Target range increased from 30 to 35
Veterancy 3 requirements adjusted from 5400 to 4500
Veterancy changed to the following
Level 1: -10% Harder to hit, +20% Ability Recharge Speed
Level 2: +10 range on abilities, +20 health
Level 3: -25% Harder to hit, +30% Ability Recharge Speed
Survival Training
We are reducing the manpower cost but increasing the fuel to better reflect the identity of these upgrades as a form alternative fuel investment to teching and purchasing vehicles.
Cost adjusted from 250 manpower and 50 fuel to 150 manpower and 70 fuel
Advanced Logistics
Cost adjusted from 200 manpower and 50 fuel to 150 manpower and 70 fuel
